Pumpkin Bread with Pecans and Chocolate Chips

It sounded weird and different, so I went with it.

Pumpkin Bread with Pecans and Chocolate Chips

This recipe comes from a Breakfast cookbook by someone called Fern Green. I bought it four years ago because I went into a bookstore to lurk and use the bathroom. This recipe makes 2 loaves, I've added more chocolate.

Ingredients:

300g pumpkin puree

350g vegetable oil

4 eggs at room temperature

150g packed dark brown sugar

150g caster sugar

450g plain flour

2 tsp ground cinnamon

pinch salt

1 tsp baking soda

200g milk chocolate chips

100g chopped pecans

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 180˚C and grease and flour two 8" x 4" loaf pans

Or one, and plan to reuse it, or whatever size you have and it'll be fine

Beat together the eggs, sugars, pumpkin and oil until combined

Stir in the dry ingredients, then the chocolate chips and pecans

Pour into prepared tin, and bake 60-70 minutes until it passes the clean knife test

Let cool c.10 minutes before removing and allowing to cool completely

It was good, different but good.
